Teacher, Thank You - One Sketch Two Cards

I have this idea on my mind on how to use the CAS(E) This Sketch #145 as shown above once I saw it. I thought I want to incorporate the Christmas theme cards since I am on Christmas cards target but my stash does not have what I had in mind. Thus, I have to pause from my Christmas cards target by making these cards.

Close-up: The negative 'teacher' die cut with watercolor background

First, I layer four (4) generous distress inks onto a watercolor paper and spritz some water on it. After it is dry, I die cut the 'teacher' word four (4) times onto the watercolor paper as shown in the sketch. The negative from the die cut is attached onto a yellow card base.

As for the four (4) die cut 'teacher' words, there are attached onto another yellow card base correspond to the negative teacher die cut position as in the sketch as well.

Close-up: Mini doily with sentiment

Another sentiment is stamped onto a light blue circle and attached onto a purple mini doily using foam tape. The mini doilies are then attached onto the card base as shown in the sketch.
